OK one more time, just to get my post count up and for the 1/2 dozen that might be interested. This is my effort at an adventure bike:
Side panel tank is a Baja Designs for a Yamaha 426. Couple of simple brackets and cheap electric fuel pump to replentish the main tank via the charcoal cannister vent. Quick connects for fuel and it can be removed in about 15 minutes. Total capacity is 4.4 gal. A few carb adjustments and it pulls like a train and still gets over 50mpg.

Pete, what should I look to get for both KLX's and some spares I have? The C runs amazing and has less then 10k on it with alot of recent maintence.

Dan, I'd say that betwwen the two bikes I saw (which had higher miles than yours), prior to buying Ray's bike, that you should be between $1900-$2200 if it's all good. Look at AV8TR on the group pix. I think it went for ~$2200. Although it's newer than your "C". Didn't see your pix on the site?

Just signing on here. The pannier system was my senior design project for UC (Finally get to graduate ). If there is anyone in the cincinnati area that wants to go for a ride PM me.

This motorcycle is simply too goddamn fast to ride at speed in any kind of normal road traffic unless you're ready to go straight down the centerline with your nuts on fire and a silent scream in your throat. -HST

Hey all, just checking in. I've got a 93-C. Great to see other KLXers around still (hard to find anyone who even knows what they are). Only worry I have with the bike is that I am NOT mechanically inclined at all, so I worry about every noise the bike makes. Would love a larger tank, wind screen and more comfy seat.

I absolutely love my KLX and would choose it over the KLR without question. 80 % of the 18,000 miles that I've
put on it were off-road and I've taken that thing places it
had no business going including off a cliff and aside from
the fact that it's a tank it's handled it pretty damn good.
